I didn't grind the tape on what he did in Miami, a pretty irrelevant team a lot of that time, or you know, what he did in Houston, it was mainly the offense went away, and that's why people why why he was much maligned.

His sprint speed goes down this year, but it's not about him being slow and unathletic.
voice-verified
Like that's part of it.
voice-verified
The range is bad.
voice-verified
But when he gets to the ball, bad things seem to happen.
voice-verified
And it is really difficult to watch.
voice-verified
And I understand why they put him in the line.
voice-verified
We talked on the pregame show.
voice-verified
You're you're out Alejandro Kirk and you're out George Springer in the starting lineup, but the day game, night game situation, you just don't want to play those players.
voice-verified
And you think, oh, we got to get some punch back in the lineup.
voice-verified
How are we going to do that?
voice-verified
Throwing Sanchez out there in Coffin Stadium, one of the biggest outfielders in baseball, like that was a bit of a risk.
voice-verified
And the risk did not pay off.
voice-verified
He didn't do anything offensively.
voice-verified
But he's been one of the hardest watchers.
voice-verified
As you can imagine, and the payoff just has not been there.
voice-verified
And people might even underrate the extent to which he's been good offensively because his overall numbers are kind of slightly above average, and his numbers against lefties are brutal.
voice-verified
So against right, he's actually been quite good.
voice-verified
It just he hasn't been close to good enough.
voice-verified
He is giving up all that value in the field.
